Biogen has been freeing up capital and corporate commitments, this is FACT. It is only speculation as to what ends they intend for those means. Listen again carefully to the new Biogen CEOs statements. Your speculation has merit, IMHO.
Your speculation of the trading pattern also has some firm foundation. XENA has shared some fairly convincing "peaks though the smoke and mirrors" with her forensic TA analysis. While I am not so gifted in that and can not make those readings myself I see the basis and relevance and trust what say has found,at least as a "peak through the smoke and mirrors." Also I am convinced of what she says is what she believes, it does not mean she is right but it is a stark contrast to many posters that change positions with the wind.
What I have been seeing, documented hard FACT, it the increased volume and activity in the CALL OPTIONS VOLUME, especially the "out of the money calls." Those HARD FACTS are open to interpretations. I am not an expert but my "seat of the pants" is telling me at least some of these are "Insurance" hedges on short positions. One could say that "longs are selling calls for premium" but does not seem to hold water given the buying pressure. Seems to be driven by buying demand given the price/volume curve. Risk on for long traders-risk off for short traders.

Yes, i think you could be right.
My opinion as well.
Biogen is buying a bunch of shares on the cheap now.
